Why it works
- Celiac disease: Certified gluten-free corn tortillas and simple fresh toppings keep gluten out of the tacos.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
